Cook up an adventure with Dora! This interactive kitchen comes complete with over 20 play pieces, phrases from Dora and realistic cooking sounds. When little chefs place the pot and frying pan on the stove they’ll hear sizzling and bubbling sounds, just like a real kitchen! The stove’s knobs and faucet turn and the oven door opens and closes so all of the accessories can store inside.

Kids can place pots on the burners, open the oven door and turn the knobs on the stove.

1Dora's Flimsy Kitchen
@_*Olivia Stabler
My daughter is 17 months and loves to watch me in the kitchen so I thought this would be a great learning tool for her and being Fisher Price, I had high hopes. Boy was I disappointed! First of all, it was very easy to put together but the plastic feels so cheap and flimsy! She has knocked the entire thing down twice just by lightly pushing on it and it's not heavy at all to keep it in place so it's also not sturdy. Another complaint I have is that the picture of the pie in the oven and the backsplash images printed on cheap CARDBOARD and only held in by tiny tabs so my daughter has easily removed them and ripped one. Kids can push right through them; Fisher Price would've been better off making these stickers to stick to the flat surfaces so they'd at least stay in place. The purple pan doesn't sit flush on the burner and while I like that it has little hooks to hang up the cups, there should be something to store the dishes and other accessories in instead of having to put them in the oven. But the most annoying part of this kitchen of all is that Dora's voice talks nonstop and the child doesn't even have to do anything to make her talk - the things she says don't even correspond to what the child is doing. If my daughter is playing with the pans on the burners, it talks about the sink. Where's the educational value in that? Also, the Spanish voice sounds muffled and you can't really understand it.

The one positive thing I can say is that we do love the accessories and they made of good quality. It comes with a spatula, cups, plates, pans, and play food such as chicken, macaroni and cheese, and eggs. But I'm sorry I just cant see that this is worth the $50 price tag - the quality is worth maybe $10 if that. So my advice is use the money you'd spend on this piece of junk and put it towards a higher quality set like the Step2 LifeStyle Custom Kitchen II, Brown/Tan/Green. My nieces and nephew have this Step 2 kitchen and it's totally worth the extra money because it's made of heavy duty plastic and is very sturdy and more life like. Sorry Dora, but your kitchen is terrible.

4This toy is a hit
@_*David's wife
This is the first Toy that my granddaughter gravitates to when she comes to visit. She will always look for it first. She loves to pretend that she is making food for us and she makes food for her dolls. The dishes sturdy plastic and She uses them alot. The cardboard cutouts that used for the scenery a bit flimsy but have held up pretty well. We did have an issues with keeping the oven door shut as it had to be shut firmly and my granddaughter didn't have the strength to close it. My husband fixed the problem with a little duct tape. This is a hit at our house.

2Flimsy and cheap feeling
@_*D. Vance
I was hoping that the Dora Sizzling Surprises Kitchen would be a fun toy for visiting grandkids, ages 2-4. Um, yeah. Not so much. First of all, they TOWER over it. (I'm pretty sure the cute ad is photo shopped)The beautiful color pictures shown on the set mostly just cardboard. The oven door flops open, which may be the reason the child is pictured standing to the side! There not very many play pieces, which I found disappointing.

Here's the thing: The size of this set would make it appropriate for a child aged about 18 months. However, a child of that age may not be very steady on their feet and I feel this set is too lightweight to support a child leaning on it. There better choices out there.
